Does one not suppose that a fair bit of this is the trial and starter doses that they give to doctors? Surely the drug company values them at list price for purposes of a business expense.
Free samples aren't include. Look up the Sunshine Act, it's only direct payments to doctors.
But this can include things all the way from doctor getting $250 for spending 60 min consulting for a company (i.e. answering questions about how they treat a disease, what they look for in a new drug) to a doctor leading multiple speaking engagements throughout the year and making tens of thousands.
